Healing from our past is often something we say we want, but is often hard to do. We have the desire, but not the know-how. Jason VanRuler brilliantly gives us powerful tools and insights from his own lived experiences to get us there. It is filled with nuggets of gold that will help you flourish and thrive. I absolutely love this book! Mike Foster, executive counselor; author, The Seven Primal Questions
In Get Past Your Past, Jason VanRuler takes us on a journey from greater self-awareness to deeper healing. Most people know Jason as a successful counselor, executive coach, or podcaster. As a personal friend (and fellow South Dakotan), I know Jason as someone who is very intentionally compassionate in the way he listens to and cares for those around him.

It's rare for anyone to make it through life unscathed. If Hurt and Healing are archenemies, then Hurt knows how to reach us all and Healing seems to be only an urban legend. This book proves that healing is real. Not only is it real, it's obtainable. I'm grateful to know Jason VanRuler and to learn from him. Do your soul a favor and get your hands on this book. Chris Durso, author, The Heist: How Grace Robs Us of Our Shame

Get Past Your Past is the guidebook you need to finally get past your own past. Dr. Zoe M. Shaw, author; psychotherapist
Jason VanRuler, a great dude and an awesome therapist who has a lot of those abbreviations after his name, wrote a book called Get Past Your Past where he challenges you to confront your past hurts, helps you move through them, and provides encouragement and a legit friend for the journey every step of the way. Also, I've been thinking, why is abbreviation such a long word? Michael Jr., comedic thought-leader; author, Funny How Life Works
